Specifying maximum size of the mongo log file
prashant
Is there a way to specify the maximum size of the mongo log file?
Basically I want to be able to control the size after which log file
would be overwritten.
Also is there some configuration related to log file rotation which
handles log file rotation automatically or is "
db.runCommand("logRotate")" the only option?
Thanks!

Use the Unix "logrotate" command.

What is the criteria of overwriting the normal log file when we don't
use the "logappend" option?
Thanks!

No idea - check the logrotate man page - it offers various options.

If you don't use --logappend then when you start mongod it will
over-write the log file. I will have to check on the behavior of no
--logappend and issuing the logrotate command.
In general you should use --logappend with --logpath and use something
like the logrotate linux tool
(http://linuxcommand.org/man_pages/logrotate8.html); it can cap the
size of the log files for you.
